Hank Williams Jr.

Randall Hank Williams (born May 26, 1949), known professionally as Hank Williams Jr. or Bocephus, is an American singer-songwriter and musician. His musical style is often considered a blend of Southern rock, blues, and country. He is the son of country music legend Hank Williams. Williams began his career following in his famed father's footsteps, covering his father's songs and imitating his father's style. Williams' first television appearance was in a 1964 episode of ABC's The Jimmy Dean Show, in which at age fourteen he sang several songs associated with his father.

Hey Saint Peter give me cloud number nine
And tell my daddy that Jr's on the line
Oh please Lord someday I'll be
A talkin' to you i wanna speak man to man
With the man who used to moan the blues

I never had the chance to get to know
The man the whole world knew as Hank
But I got to know some
Pretty famous rowdy friends
And they told me he was the king
I remember him singing 'bout a lost highway
I've been down that same road too
Hey, my mama had me spendin' my younger
Days trying to fill my daddy's shoes

Now that I'm grown I'm a man of my own
I think I know why Lovesick sang
The way he used to do i surely do
I bet a hundred dollars son
A woman was the one
Who made my daddy sing the
Way he sang the blues

You know I can't help but wonder
If he was still with us
Just what he would think
About his little son he called Bocephus
Now is Rockin' Randall Hank
I've been many many a mile since
I quit walking in his shoes
These days I got my own style
And my people love the blues

Livin' on the road doing one
Night shows I know about
The hard life Mama and Daddy
Used to go through yeah I surely do
In the sweet by and by I'm
Gonna look him in the eye
And I'm gonna shake the hand of the
Man who used to moan the blues

Hey St Peter give me cloud number nine
And tell Hank Sr that Jr's on the line
Oh please Lord tell him I
Got some real good news
I wanna speak man to man with the
Man who used to moan the blues

I've been livin' on the road
Seen a lot of things
Broke a lot of hearts and some guitar strings
I know what poor old pappy
Was a goin' through
We'll meet person to person and man to man
From South Alabama to the promised land
I wanna speak man to man
With the man who used to moan the blues

I mean person to person and man to man
We come form south Alabama
To the promised land
I wannna speak man to man
With the man who used to moan the blues
